The Kimber is something I thought I would never find. A small hotel with each detail selected as if I had designed it myself. Every chair, every table, every glass, every hinge -- a Michael Gabellini-esque treasure in the coolest part of Austin. I have a dream now of filling the KM's six rooms/suites with my closest friends and sharing... More

My wife and I stayed here for two nights to celebrate our anniversary. The location was very close to Congress Ave with lots of shops and restaurants all walk able. The weather was 105-108F HOT! - but inside the hotel we didn't notice. It was very anonymous with almost no staff contact thanks to pre established coded keyless entry -... More

Those were my exact words to the lovely and gracious owner as my departure sadly drew near. While the alliteration doesn't begin to do The KimberModern justice, it is contemporary, crisp, clean, and comfy. It is a perfect, serene, artful oasis tucked into the side pocket of a hip, happening scene. You feel as though you are a kid again,... More

Great small hotel in a hip part of Austin. Very contemporary design, tucked away just off of South Congress. The rooms all face onto a patio dominated by an old oak tree. The rooms are large (compared to the ones I'm used to in NYC or Europe), well-appointed while being environmentally friendly. Super comfortable beds, nice linens, and Malin +... More

Loved this B&B. We stayed for our anniversary and were pleasantly surprised by the privacy, coziness, and ammenities. Clean rooms; ultra modern style, but comfy not cold; great in-room products; excellent food provided. Loved wine happy hour under the huge oak tree on the deck. Free interenet was a plus; cute Mondrian and Eames-styled common areas; great location. Half a... More

What a hidden gem. Almost hate to let the secret out. Amazing zen like ambience, with clean contemporary design. Feels like your in a tree house! We met all our fellow guests at Happy Hour and my daughter and I had a wonderful time. The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. Love the location for restaurants, shopping and nightlife.

You can always find a cheap place to stay but life is too short. The Kimber is fairly priced for the high level of return that you will enjoy. The architecture and design is a tribute to form and function that temps you to forget about walking to S. Congress which is just a block away but nicely out of... More

My partner and I were looking forward to a nice getaway in Austin. Without going into too much detail, the bottom line is the ladies of this place tried to charge us twice for a room (at $300 plus a night) and then charge us $50.00 for service fee! Not worth it. Stay at the San Jose or Austin Motel... More

My husband and I live in Austin but decided to stay here for his birthday weekend, ditching our dogs with a nearby friend. We absolutely loved it. It's a little expensive for us to do it often, but the next time we're ready to splurge, we're definitely calling the KimberModern. Kimber & Vicky were gracious & friendly, their dog is... More

There are places you go. And then there are those indescribably alluring spots that draw you in at first glimpse. For the independent urban traveler seeking a unique escape, the Kimber Modern holds particular appeal. Perhaps it’s the clean lines of this architectural work of art tucked away within the hip, trendy and vibrant SoCo district. Maybe it’s the abundant light filtered through the canopy of oaks in the artfully landscaped Courtyard. Or it could be the absolute comfort and attention to detail found in each thoughtfully designed and technologically sophisticated room in this breathtaking boutique hotel. Regardless of what leads you to Austin, find yourself at the Kimber Modern. ... more   less
